re: CBS Morning News: “Trump Is Characterizing This As A ‘Raid’ But Experts Disagree”

No, I’m just pointing out that your current view appeared the moment the progressives told you to hold it.

You didn’t have an issue or post anything in relation to this topic yesterday or at the start of this.

You did come out to validate a completely non-semantic shift in terminology for partisan reasons.

I am not a lawyer and I can drive a bus through the holes in your argument.

Someone says "pink." I give it very little thought. Someone else says "it is really closer to mauve." I think "It probably IS closer to mauve, and I would probably say 'mauve,' but it doesn't really bother me to see someone else say 'pink.'"

See, here you go again mischaracterizing the situation to validate partisan views.

“Someone” didn’t call it pink. EVERYONE called it pink.

Then, after 48 hours, when a group of partisan individuals realize that “pink” is giving their opposition some serious momentum, they decide that it actually isn’t “pink”, and here are the experts to prove it.



Your argument would hold water if that was the stance from the start and it didn’t shift because of “optics”.

Even the “expert” who stated that they shouldn’t use the term “raid” (right before they changed the banner on CNN/MSNBC) stated that FBI agents don’t like the term because it sounds inflammatory.

You are simply too narcissistic to admit that you are wrong.

In your mind, this is a huge "gotcha." Strange.

In your mind, you think your argument holds water.

It doesn’t.
